This layer contains the DEM for LiDAR data from the Wellington region captured in 2013. Note that this DEM is based on automated point cloud classification and contains some residual remnants of surface features.

Lidar was captured for Greater Wellington Regional Council by Aerial Surveys in 2013. The datasets were generated by Landcare Research. The survey area includes Wellington, Porirua, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, Wairarapa, and Kapiti. Data management and distribution is by Land Information New Zealand.

Lidar was captured for Auckland Council by NZ Aerial Mapping & Aerial Surveying Limited. The capture of the data commenced on 17th July and was completed by the 23 November 2013. The datasets were generated by both ASL and NZAM. All raw point cloud data was produced by NZAM & ASL prior to data being sent to Genesys International for the data classification and product generation. The survey area includes the Auckland city urban area and adjacent rural land covering approximately 2250 square kilometers. Data management and distribution external to Auckland Council is managed by Land Information New Zealand.
